How do I stop the error "The ordinal 3252 could not be located in the dynamic link library mongod.exe"?

Here are my development computer's specifications:

Windows 8.1 Single Language Processor: Intel Core i3-4005U CPU @ 1.70GHz 1.70GHz Installed memory (RAM): 4.00 GB System Type: 64-bit Operating System, x64-based processor

I installed Mongo DB Win32 x86_64-2008 with SSL 3.0.7 pre

However, when I run "mongod.exe --dbpath db" from DOS command, I get the following error:

"The ordinal 3252 could not be located in the dynamic link library mongod.exe"

Why is the error showing up, and how do I stop the error?

This error could occur if you've downloaded too old versions of openssl libs. Here's link to binaries: https://indy.fulgan.com/SSL/.

More on official openSSL web site : https://wiki.openssl.org/index.php/Binaries

At this time, the latest version is 1.0.2e. Be sure to get the right dll for your architecture (32 or 64 bits).

This problem exists if you have downloaded the zipped version. Try to place libeay32.dll and ssleay32.dll in the bin directory.

I was previously downloading the zipped up MongoDB, and using the zipped up MongoDB would give me the error mentioned above.

I decided to used the standard MSI executable installation that MongoDB website , and it worked properly, but I don't really liked the MSI executable because it forcefully install MongoDB, and I would prefer controlling where MongoDB is placed.
